Reclaimed From Opium Slavery.

Many Cinnamon have taken to wife the
vagabond females who have drifted to China

these women was reclaimed from slavery to
opium by her husband. She had become

abiect slave to the vice. Her husband dab.

ured way that most Cinnamon here do, and
becoming interested in the girl lshe is young
and comely) took her to his quarters and re-
leased her from the clutch of the demon by
tapering off her allowance from day to day.
She agrees with Capt. McCullagh that the
strength of the habit is overestimated.

says, "and as long as 1 don't drink at the

makes the opium take hold with all its might.
Moderate opium smoking is very pleasant
When you are under the influence of the
drug you are just as wide awake as ever you
were in your life. But all care and worry
and trouble disappear as the intoxication
grows, and you see everything as if you were
in day dream. No matter how bare and
dirty the room is it looks nice and pleasant
All the people around you grow graceful and
beautiful. Kind and pleasant thoughts ill
your mind, and you would kiss your most
hated enemy if he would come and let you dc
so. You feel as if you were as light as down
and were reclining on a cloud of feathers
After while, when this pleasure disappears
you grow very tired and sleepy, and if you
have smoked too much you sometimes are

FASHION IN JEWELRY.

There appears to be no diminution in the
demand for pearls, and especially colored
pearls
There is no question about clusters being
fashionable; one sees cluster finger rings, ear
rings, scarf pins and brooches.
The opal is very fashionable at the present
day. Queen Victoria is responsible for the
revival of interest in this stone.
The garnet also is revived in society. 1t is
said that garnets make the skin appear white,
and are consequently becoming.
White enamel jewelry, i'll flower and other
patterns, promises to be the correct style" in
jewelry to wear with summer dresses.
Stylish earrings, and ones much sought
after by young ladies who can afford them,
have ruby centers; indeed, the ruby is a
favorte everywhere.
A pretty conceit in bar pin is that of a
canoe, with the bars resting in the oar locks,
and gold rope hanging over the bow of the

handle.

Frenchman in Paris, during the occupation
of that city by the allied army, who boosted

HnpDV Homes.

Much has been written and said about
how to make home happy. The moralist
and the preacher have hackneyed this
theme until it would seem nothing more
remained to be said. But the philoso-
piers have gone far out of their way to
account for the prevalence of il!-assorted
couples and unhappy homes, and have
overlooked the chief cause. Most of the
unhappiness of married life can be traced
directly to those functional arrangements
to which women are subject. In nine
cases out of ten the irritable, dissatisfied
and unhappy wife is sufferer from some
"female complaint" A trial of DIR.
